Children were excited to see each other after the Spring Break and were waiting to start to work. Some new spring works such as learning about the birds, insects, plants and lifecycles have been quite popular. They have also been working with the 45 layout, moveable alphabet, maps, making books – geometric cabinet and metal insets. There is a huge interest in the changes outside. They have begun noticing birds, flowers and bugs. This is a good time for nature walks as a family too.
Children are enjoying the “flower arranging work” in our room. We request that you send in a bunch of cut fresh flowers on your child’s snack day, starting Monday the 28th.Children are also encouraged to bring in flowers from their garden/yard.
The children are also looking forward to the international Fair this Sunday from 2-4 pm. They are working hard to get some beautiful items ready for the Silent Auction and have fun visiting the Different Continent Tables. Please bring friends and family to the fair.
Registration for fall to the public is in progress now! Please let Brenda know as early as you can what days your child will be attending in the fall. This helps us to know what to start offering to the new families. Few openings are available, please let your friends and family know, if interested. We will be offering half day summer as well as full day. Summer program will be from June 2nd to July 18th. This summer, two of my good friends will be working with us. Genie and Marlene have several years of experience working in Montessori rooms. Most of our children know Ms. Genie from Yoga and she is our primary guide at IMCS. Senora Marlene Calderin hails originally from Venezuela and will be doing Spanish with the children. I am looking forward to a lot of fun time for summer.
Happy Spring!
